Oh dear l am going to upset you both as my brother is a Chelski fan so l will be cheering them on tomorrow.

It seems some of these Arsenal supporters are what you call fair-weather supporters as Wenger announces that he is leaving and yet there are empty seats still at the Emirates.

So it's United v Chelsea on May 19th. TBH I fear Chelsea far more than I did Spurs.

Will hopefully get a ticket but the allocation for the final is a lot less than for the semis.

By the time they share out around 40% of the tickets to their friends you are quite right Jim.

That's sort of what I meant way back in this post

* doesn't apply to watford fans

Liverpools attacks when on point are absolutely unstoppable. They might well just brute force through any challenge at this point. Liverpool have absolutely every chance of winning the champions league and deservedly so. The welcome return of European success for English teams. If Liverpool go through, I have no doubt Bayern or Madrid will fear them.

Three. Systematic dismantling. The most formidable attacking force in Europe on its day.

Well l certainly never expected this but l will certainly take it..

Five now, shocking defending by Roma but Liverpool have been ruthless.

Italian teams don't usually defend like this that is for sure..

Roma do, United beat them 7-1 a few years back.

Your memory serves you well.

A incredibly soft penalty IMO..

£900m, already floating around £600m and I highly doubt that's solid lump cash either given he owns Fulham and not Liverpool or Manchester City. Which then screams installments or an investment whip round. The FA and media might spin this as success but its pure bollocks. £130m of it was funded by the tax payer. The belief all of it would be reinvested wisely is also a crock.
